Tending our Grief & Gratitude - Day Retreat - Sunday 19th February 2024
Day Retreat to remember your true nature in the arms of Mother Nature
Guided through deep listening in nature practice, sharing & ritual, restorative yoga, and intuitive movement and dance, this is a retreat that intentionally holds space for the grief you carry, and the gratitude of this life we live. In a safe and supportive space where the group bears witness, you will be able to express anything that is weighing heavily on you… unexpressed love or longing, dissatisfaction and disillusionment, or the fires of rage that burn in response to social or environmental injustice. You will feel deeply connected to yourself, to the community of participants, and remember your belonging to Mother Earth.
